Nestled in its own Japanese-inspired garden in Jimbaran is one of the most coveted Japanese restaurants in Bali. KO Restaurant, located within InterContinental Bali Resort grounds, announces an array of delicacies with a fresh twist of Balinese flavour in its new menu. This innovative fusion menu promises to tantalise the palates of both seasoned Japanese food enthusiasts and adventurous gourmands alike.
Under the guidance of the culinary maestro, chef Mitsuaki Senoo, dining in the restaurant ensures unforgettable memories of the elevated experience and the lingering characterful flavours. The new menu raises the bar higher, combining the familiar taste of Bali and authentic Japanese.
Highlights include the Hamachi Jalapeno with Sambal Matah, a dish that delivers an authentic Japanese experience with a surprising kick thanks to the inclusion of the fiery Balinese condiment. Diners can also delve into the Creamy Shrimp Tempura Roll, a delightful fusion creation that pairs crispy tempura prawns with the familiar comfort of a classic California roll.
Another exciting addition to the menu is Robatayaki, a charcoal-grilled offering that showcases local ingredients. This dish comes accompanied by a Bedugul green crisp salad with a trio of dipping sauces: teriyaki, ponzu, and the vibrant Balinese relish, Sambal Matah.
Beyond that, KO Restaurant’s curated set menu is a must-try. Crafted to complete the dining experience, the set menu showcases premium options such as Certified A5 Miyazaki Wagyu and Australian Wagyu Beef Striploin. For a truly immersive experience, snag a seat at the Teppanyaki counter while savouring these smoky fares. Witness the culinary artistry firsthand as the skilled chefs put on a dazzling display of acrobatic Teppanyaki performance, adding a theatrical flair to the meal.
